Thunderstorms are in the forecast

More Information

SAN ANTONIO — Thunderstorms and showers are possible Wednesday night into Thursday morning across South Central Texas, according to the National Weather Service.

An upper level storm system will be moving across the area, according to the agency's New Braunfels office. The system will also cause thunderstorms Wednesday afternoon west of Rocksprings. Those thunderstorms could be strong, with possible gusty winds and small hail, according to meteorologists.

In the San Antonio area, patchy dense fog Wednesday morning will clear to partly cloudy skies, becoming mostly sunny in the afternoon. High temperatures will reach the lower 90s in Bexar County and the mid-80s in the Hill Country. Winds will blow from the south, with gusts of up to 25 miles per hour late in the afternoon.

Wednesday night will be partly cloudy before midnight, then cloudy with a 20 percent chance of thunderstorms. Low temperatures will drop to the mid-60s in Bexar County and the lower 60s in the Hill Country.

Thunderstorms are also possible in the region Saturday night through Sunday, just in time for the Fiesta Flambeau Night Parade.

“A few storms could become strong Sunday afternoon across the northern Hill Country,” meteorologists wrote Wednesday in a 5 a.m. statement.

After the storms, low humidity and gusty winds will likely cause elevated fire weather conditions early next week along and west of Interstate 35.
